hbinded Posted March 17, 2006 Share Posted March 17, 2006 I have a question on the opposite. How do I make the users in my LAN to have to input a username and passowrd before viewing shared files? I'm currently in a campus hostel and I would like to share some files but only to specific people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
